Skanska to Begin 38-Story Seattle Office Tower
Quote:
Skanska USA Commercial Development is set to start work on 2+U, a lifted, 38-story, 665,000-square-foot office tower in Seattle’s urban core. The $392 million building is named for its location, at Second Avenue and University Street, near the Seattle Art Museum, Pike Place Market, Benaroya Hall (the home of the Seattle Symphony and also built by Skanska) and the downtown transit tunnel.
The tower’s office space will be lifted to 85 feet, accommodating an all-seasons, 24,000-square-foot “outdoor urban village” that includes arts and entertainment spaces, restaurants and retail, all open to the public. This part of the project was made possible by an alley vacation from the City of Seattle.
The 1.01-acre site is subject to a 75-year ground lease from the Samis Foundation, a Seattle-based non-profit that supports Jewish education in the city.
The project, targeting LEED Gold certification, was first announced in November 2014 and will take till the second quarter of 2019 to complete. Amenities include:
